Boring hospital doctor beset by signs of indecision (7)
I believe the answer is:
humdrum
'boring' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'hospital doctor beset by signs of indecision' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'hospital' could be 'h' and 'h' is found within the answer.
'doctor' could be 'md' ('MD' can be a synonym of 'doctor') and 'md' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for humdrum that I've seen before include "Workaday" , "Droning sounds" , "Everyday, boring" , "Everyday, tedious" , "Dull and uninteresting" .)
